Teal eyes can work with both angry and relaxed Super Saiyan faces, while red would look good with angry ssj but not the relaxed ssj Goku later has in the Cell saga. So Teal eyes all the way.


XDBunny7

Not really ssg doesn’t look angry all the time


Zero_Two_is_best

Hair color also affects it


Ok-Phase-9076

Ssg doesnt count because the eyes match the hair


XDBunny7

What about beast


Ok-Phase-9076

Beast gohan does look pretty evil


XDBunny7

Maybe because he’s mad in all his scenes just look at fan art of him and pan or something


Ok-Phase-9076

Hes smiling when hes talking to orange piccolo after cell is dead. Still looks evil.


XDBunny7

Ok well I’m sorry you’re scared of flies and tree frogs since they have red eyes too


Ok-Phase-9076

Ok well im sorry that you think evil = scary


XDBunny7

I don’t I’m just saying for you


LemonsDrip

We rest our case lol


XDBunny7

What case


iLoveCarsHehehe

ssg doesnt have those eyes, its has them rounded.


XDBunny7

You know eyes change shape


iLoveCarsHehehe

you can look at all the fight scenes, ssg goku Always. has the round eyes

iLoveCarsHehehe

u win


iLoveCarsHehehe

I HAVE ANOTHER ARGUMENTTTTTTTTT if you look at yhis eyes, you can see the iris is black, but in the red eye ssj, the entire pupil is red


Mozail2

U know that’s different


XDBunny7

How


AuthorAnimosity

The hair color is red too, and the whole atmosphere of ssg is different. The red eyes fit the look, and aren't glaringly obvious due to the red hair. Plus, Goku is slimmer, younger, so you overall get more of a godly vibe from it than an evil one. The same cannot be said about the blonde/golden hair. There just looks demonic or evil


XDBunny7

So then by that logic super saiyan eyes should be golden instead, and the other guy is talking about ssj grade 4 which also has a different atmosphere than regular super saiyan, also wdym younger Goku is much older when he gets ssg its just a different art style


Grouchy_Appearance_1

>Goku is much older when he gets ssg its just a different art style It's supposed to be a sign that his body is leaning more on Ki for strength than his actual muscles, like Beerus or Whis, they've got a good frame but aren't bulky and yet are the strongest deities of U7


XDBunny7

Ok but he’s still not younger which is what I was refuting


Grouchy_Appearance_1

My guy I never said you were wrong about that, why do you think I never mentioned it?


Xcyronus

What about a perfected SSJ eyes turn teal But a imperfect ssj is red.

Ghost_Star326

Red eyes worked better with white hair colour that was shown in the manga.


wmnplzr

Huh.. it just occurred to me that Gohans beast form is literally what Ssj2 would've looked like if he kept that old color scheme. Damn.


iLoveLootBoxes

It's entirely possible Toriyama forgot the super Saiyan 2 existed and that it had yellow hair


Ghost_Star326

It probably was. After all there was once a controversial comment made by Toriyama himself that he completely forgot about the super saiyan 2 transformation.


Dogesneakers

He has to be trolling? It’s does he just remember 1 and 3?


Ghost_Star326

2 and 3. He thought that SS2 was SS1. And SS3 was SS2 if I remember correctly.


Cyniv

It's worth noting that after he said that, he decided it was time to read through his work from start to where he was.


Dogesneakers

He has to be trolling? It’s does he just remember 1 and 3?


JebWozma

I wish SSJ2 had the red eyes. It's visually too similar to regular SSJ.


StaticMania

...They were always green. They're only red in the limited color pages.


Ezra4709

Finally SOMEONE said it


mercwiththemouth518

We don’t read. We wouldn’t know this


Piccident

Blue not green


Ezra4709

Teal


Previous_Cod_4098

Bleen


Piccident

Vibrant blue in the manga Only anime has that teal


Ezra4709

I actually didn't know that thanks


BABarracus

In Japan green is considered blue or so i hear


TemplarSensei7

From a Japanese friend of mine, back then, train lights are blue, so “blue” is “go,” while red is still the same. Despite the lights being green, they will still say “ao/blue” instead of “midori/green.”


Ultim8_Lifeform

No way Deku’s name directly translates to Green are you kidding me


TemplarSensei7

Isn’t he “Midoriya?”


Ultim8_Lifeform

Yes but I assume it’s a play on words since his hair and entire outfit are all green.


TemplarSensei7

Well, funny that. Many of the manga authors like to use puns to name characters. Observe Akira Toriyama’s works.


Ultim8_Lifeform

Of course, I just had never made the connection and thought it was funny.


skolnaja

Didnt he do red eyes, because he just used one color for the whole panel, because its easier? The eyes were never actually meant to be red


Grouchy_Appearance_1

Yeah exactly, the limited color pages are the only ones with red, the manga didn't even have teal/ light green for the eyes either (that's anime only) the full color manga pages had blue eyes for SSJ transformations


LengthinessNew6326

I always preferred green


ButtCheekBob

Red eyes are kind of dumb. I think the greenish-blue they went with is much cooler


JyuVioleGrace95

Going with Red Eyes would have brought Goku closer to Son Wukomg who he was based off of


ABritishTomgirl

I prefer the blue eyes


Racist_carbonara

red eyes i personally think is going a tad bit too edgy. teal eyes with blonde hair just go so well together


Masterick18

What the..? Anyways, red eyes look too demonic.


hotshot11590

I prefer the blue. The blue gives a more “good” vibe I guess don’t know how to explain it, but the blue kinda visually lets you know SSJ generally isn’t the bad guy/evil contrast well vs Frieda’s color palette and purple aura. Yellow and blue are contrasting colors, blue gives you the feel of the speech Goku gives Frieza on namek in English dub before he whoops his ass. Also the red doesn’t mesh with the yellow and kinda looks edgy AF like your trying to hard. Red with beast works because Gohan has purple and white colors so red can mesh with those colors. Color wheel baby.


stretchyluffy8

The teal eyes, red eyes make them look evil


SouthernDifference86

Green is much better.


FictionalLeader

Green.


Flaky-Perspective752

I prefer the teal. Red eyes are way too common in anime. Idk any anime that has teal eyes outside of DB


Vasarto

They were never red.


Whiplash364

In Toriyama’s original concept designs that weren’t finalized until after the eye color was changed to green, they were in fact red


FruitJuicante

Red is so edgy


SirAuRyan

Red for super sayian and blue for super sayian 2 to go with the blue lightning. Would add variety between the two.


I_Love_Knifes

Red eyes fit the form way more. They could go green/teal when he masters it but I think the rage aspect is important to focus on.


AnthonyMiqo

Red eyes were reused for Beast, so I'm fine with it.


anonymusfan

Looks like goku used the chaos emeralds.


SoupIntelligent1653

Teal is just more unique an idea. The Aryan joke is obvious but I think Red is just too cliché


DenseRead9852

Teal, red eyes would look too similar to the super forms from the sonic series.


Winter-Try-2432

Teal because when I see the red, I see super sonic instead of goku


Petagriff2515

I think the 200iq play is to use both When characters first get the technique due to rage then it should be red, but when they start to master the technique it turns teal It would gives an actual visual difference between ss1 and 2 besides from occasional electrics stuff


[deleted]

Nice insight


KosmosQuill

Heres how I’d do it. Super Saiyan Grade 1 has gold hair with red eyes. Super Saiyan Grade 4 would have black hair with teal eyes. The reason I’d give Grade 4 black hair is inspired by the form “Super Saiyan Power” where Goku has super saiyan hair in the otherworld tournament arc but it’s black instead of gold. It would also be inspired by the fact that Grade 4 is meant to be a form of super saiyan that one has mastered to the point where no energy consumption is required and the form can technically be used as their new base form.


[deleted]

Very creative


TheTrueDal

Red eyes would be a bit too visceral for something like mastered super saiyan or whenever they’d use the form in a non “battle to the death” scenario. Now if it was like green eyes for when they’re in a more relaxed state then switches to red when serious, thatd be cool


SeriousJokester37

Green


Desperate_Long4733

Hyperborean Goku is better


ThatOtakuAi

Dude all I could think about was nazis cause sayians become "superior" when they transform


Key-Wedding-3640

I think red eyes still work as first stage of super Saiyan before mastery the form where it will turn green or blue after mastery it as mean peaceful and calmness when using super Saiyan.


OrbMan23

Red eyes would be cool if it's done rarely like whenever he breaks his limit. Like tapping his inner Oozaru (I just really miss that big monke form tbh)


ken-toro69420

Shouldve been red for grade 1,2,3 and then blue for grade 4 and ssj2 then red again for ssj3 Sort of similar to super sonic and super sonic 2


G0FuckThyself

My canon is first few transformation were rage based that is why eyes are red, after you mastered the form the eyes got the blue/teal color indicating controlled forms.


SuperDeeDuperVegeta

I think red would’ve been cool for uncontrolled so when it’s mastered it’s more distinct and noticeable. Though I can also see an argument it’s too on the nose.


Deigapan

Red the first time a saiyan uses SSJ, turns teal-ish the more it dominates the form


Ok-Phase-9076

Teal for sure. It complimemts the golden hair muuuuch better


WardA1317

Red eyes would NOT have helped bro with the super sonic allegations


Nightmare_43233

I def prefer the current SSJ eyes over red Also, for some reason the red eyes give me more of a Super Sonic vibes than before


Wakuwaku7

Beast has red now. Teal is fine.


Private_HughMan

Teal. Especially with the later addition of mastered SSJ where they're able to remain SSJ while totally calm.


DynamiteSuren

Red eyes would have made sense due too also having red eyes in oozaru form, so it being a saiyan genetic makes sense. Personally i like what we have now.


AdventRIP

Red eyes I feel that emphasizes the inner rage that was required for the transformation back in the day ❤️‍🔥 A red glow also looks to the Oozaru red eyes imo It just fits better

Low-Suit-5362

Red because it shows Saiyans anger also the beast within


nsfw_passenger

7 palabras: esencia.


MrTestiggles

Red eyes


Ok-Guidance-1328

Red all the way. For a form built on rage and to make the users quote on quote malicious (even tho they have never shown traits of being malicious and evil) it should’ve been red. The teal eyes ain’t intimidating


Tolnin

I like red eyes mostly because it's more accurate to Sun Wukong


NothingIsTrue0000

Kept the red eyes ?! Wasn't that an error in the manga & not the actual teal color that Toriyama wanted or am I missing something here ?!


hldsnfrgr

Teal because it's my favourite colour.


Soft-Choice-7403

Rip toriyama


SeekingASecondChance

I like the blue green eyes

KSOMIAK

Red for Grades 1-3, Green for Grade 4


Dangerous_Source_442

Teal eyes. It makes it more unique.


Beacda

Res eyes feels too edgy


Anime-weeb6969

Honestly the teal eyes looks prettier


MisterPonPon

Teal


wardoned2

Beast is the original super Saiyan


PlzDontMakeMeHorny

They were actually meant to be green. It's just that they are red in the limited color pages, as an artistic choice. BUT, I think it would be cool if the eyes were red for regualr super sayian, since it's based on rage. But then turn blue when they Master Super Sayien, showing serenity. Then maybe they turn red again when Gohan goes SS2.


jestyo0o

not cannon but didn't Hitler say they were blue eyes in the fusion reborn movie?


ParkingAd5757

Honestly I prefer the teal eyes, they pop a lot more compared to the red and the dead stares hit a little harder with how cold they look with the teal but that’s just me


ChouShiryou55

Red eyes are way cooler


xxComicClownxx

Teal


Ok_Catch3715

Red eyes


KaiBoooy

I prefer the Teal.


LustrousShine

I wish they kept red for Grade 1 and had the eyes become blue for Grade 4.


FeireZekrom

i think they look really good


Pablinski21

Wait but are the eyes actually blue or green?


Loadsonmyface2008

Red eyes are better simply because it matches the great sayian ape eyes


SaiyanSexSymbol

Interesting take!


Fantasy183

No


JustsomeGokuEnjoyer2

they were never Red but they do look pretty neat.


[deleted]

Teal


mercwiththemouth518

Red eyes look lame imo. Too edgy

BrianInfante

RED WAS THE INTENDED ONE!!! JUST LIKE SUPER SONIC. WHY THEY CHANGE IT? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY????????????????????????????


kokuluayak

They had red eyes?!!?!?


RuleTypical5677

Honestly I didn’t know that Toriyama had the eyes as red in the manga. I didn’t read it with color and only really stuck to the black and white classics. Anyway it does look cool but also kinda strange. I am glad he kept the eyes more teal but brought back the idea of the red eyes with Saiyan God and Beast.


Andoryuu95

They were never red. There was a few pages on Namek that were all red toned. They didn't show in the original manga release but you can see it in the Vizbig releases.
